Maintenance and servicing
6.3.1
Maintenance by Metrohm service
Maintenance of the 766 IC Sample Processor is best done as part of an
annual service performed by specialists from the Metrohm company. If
work is frequently performed with caustic and corrosive chemicals, it
may be necessary to shorten the interval between servicing.
The Metrohm service department is always willing to offer expert advice
on the maintenance and servicing of all Metrohm instruments.
6.3.2
Care of the unit
The 766 IC Sample Processor requires proper care and attention. Ex-
cessive contamination of the instrument could possibly lead to mal-
functions and a shorter service life of the inherently rugged mechanical
and electronic parts.
Wipe up spilled chemicals and solvents immediately. The connectors
(in particular the power supply) should be protected from contamina-
tion. The 766 IC Sample Processor should never be operated without
plug cover (see section 2.3.3).
The unit has been constructed in such a way as to virtually eliminate
the possibility of penetration of corrosive media into the interior of the
instruments. If such a situation does occur, disconnect the mains
plug of the 766 IC Sample Processor immediately to prevent extensive
damage to the instrument electronics. Inform Metrohm service if your
instrument has been damaged in such a way.
The instrument must not be opened by untrained personnel. Please
comply with the safety notes in section 1.5.1.
